Title: Javascript issue with drop down toggle text Last modified: February 2, 2021 --- # Javascript issue with drop down toggle text * Resolved [mattaus03](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattaus03/) * (@mattaus03) * [5 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-issue-with-drop-down-toggle-text/) * Hi, * Activating Autoptimize has really helped my website speed; however I have a FAQ section on my site that uses drop down toggle text (i.e. click on a FAQ and then the text appears underneath, click it again and it disappears – pretty standard). * It seems to be an issue with the Javascript Options; as I can keep the Autoptimize CSS Options and HTML Options activated, but as soon as I try to activate the Javascript Option I run into trouble. * I’ve tried selecting ‘Force JavaScript in ?’ and ‘Add try-catch wrapping?’ just to see if that did anything; but it didn’t -> as soon as I select ‘Aggregate JS-files?’ I get the error. * I have gone hunting around all over the place trying to find the specific javascript causing the problem so that I could add it to ‘Exclude scripts from Autoptimize:’; but my trial and error approach has not worked. My default exclude scripts list includes the following: wp-includes/js/dist/, wp-includes/js/tinymce/, js/jquery/ jquery.js, js/jquery/jquery.min.js * If I try debugging the error from console, I get the following: * Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined (autoptimize_1cfcbc72a2417d8f150b7780e93f71b2. js:5) at Function.u.extend (autoptimize_1cfcbc72a2417d8f150b7780e93f71b2.js: 5) at Object.c.widgetsTypes (autoptimize_1cfcbc72a2417d8f150b7780e93f71b2.js: 5) at __webpack_require__ (autoptimize_1cfcbc72a2417d8f150b7780e93f71b2.js:5) at Object.c.widgetsTypes (autoptimize_1cfcbc72a2417d8f150b7780e93f71b2.js:5) at __webpack_require__ (autoptimize_1cfcbc72a2417d8f150b7780e93f71b2.js:5) at Object.

Definitely getting the problem in the Brave browser. Firefox seems to be sporadic. But if you try it with Brave you’ll definitely see what I’m talking about. * Thanks so much. * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [5 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-issue-with-drop-down-toggle-text/#post-13990047) * Looks like you’re also using something to Async Javascript, you’ll have to make sure jquery.min.js is not asynced Matt. * Thread Starter [mattaus03](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattaus03/) * (@mattaus03) * [5 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-issue-with-drop-down-toggle-text/#post-13990487) * Absolutely amazing…spot on!!
